3. Eteoclus
(“Ἔσχημάτισται — πυργωμάτων.” — Lines 461-465.)
“... No mean device
Is sculptured on his shield: ‘A man in arms,
His ladder fix’d against the enemies’ walls,
Mounts, resolute, to rend their rampires down;’
And cries aloud (the letters plainly mark’d),
‘Not Mars himself shall beat me from the Tow’rs.’”
